New date/time for the licensing and rabies vaccination clinic

The Seattle Animal Shelter “Protect Your Pet” licensing and vaccination clinic is on a new schedule. Beginning this month, the clinic will be open every third Saturday, from 10-11:30 a.m.

These monthly clinic events are hosted in partnership with Good Neighbor Vet, which provides the vaccinations in its mobile unit. This month’s clinic takes place on Saturday, March 18 in the shelter parking lot at 2061 15th Ave. W.

Cats and dogs are required to be licensed and vaccinated against rabies under Seattle Municipal Code 9.25.050 and Washington Administrative Code 246-100-197. One- to two-year pet license fees range from $24 to $70 for spayed and neutered pets and $75 to $200 for unaltered pets.

The Protect Your Pet events offer services on a first-come, first-served basis. All dogs must be leashed, and all cats must be in carriers. Previous vaccination records are not required, but you are encouraged to bring them, if available. Additional vaccinations and microchips will be available for an added fee.
